There was a blue touch paper, but nobody brought a match.

Exactly

That is just savage. No hiding place if your legs aren't good.

I notice that the preceding 8kms to both of the final climbs have sections of 10-15%.
Interesting.

Probably a good stage to check out on the comoot site

They are off. WVA and Oliveira sprinting like it’s a flat finish.

If you do check it out, you'll see the 8% non-categorised climb sections are the least of their worries. There are 13-14% sections there as well.

So basically, both the last two climbs have an uneven but mostly uphill section around 5-6km in length with some pretty steep sections on*, just to get the legs warmed up before the actual climb.

I think if there are actually 13-15% bits they're possibly only a couple of m in length tbh, from looking at google maps as well

Carlos Rodriguez has finally found away to get himself in front of the cameras.
